But it never has done so, against ABCC-PAC or any of the dozens of faux charities likely making hundreds of thousands of similar calls a year to my fellow Nevadans. SOSO has the power to issue cease-and-desist orders and levy civil financial penalties. ABCC-PAC is not registered and never has been.

Some call these outfits scam charities.Īt least in Las Vegas, where I live, ABCC-PAC gets away with this partly by flouting a Nevada law prohibiting fundraisers, including PACs, from soliciting in the state for, among other causes, “any … public health … purpose” without first registering with the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office (SOSO) and making financial filings. It’s counting on complete suckers at the other end of the phone line. That’s a political action committee that presents like a meritorious exempt organization as it cold-calls unsuspecting Mom and Pop donors, in Las Vegas and elsewhere nationally, with a slick pitch and a quick ask. The organization is what I call a faux charity.

This conclusion is based on its own federal filings–under oath, no less!–showing that 0% was spent toward that worthy cause from the millions of dollars raised using outside vendors during its entire four years of existence.ĪBCC-PAC is itself a cancer, on society. Nor has the organization ever fought breast cancer institutionally in any real way. But ABCC-PAC has no employees, no volunteers and just one part-time board member/officer. The dictionary definition of “coalition” connotes some kind of plurality. The grandly named American Breast Cancer Coalition PAC is, to put it mildly, a misnomer. **-Fundraisers that have called asking for money despite a critical article by me about them or an affiliate on one of my blogs Commentary/arts/ food/review
